SECTION 475:1-5-11. Surrender of Registration in Lieu of Administrative Action

(a)   Any registered person of the OBN may surrender the registration in lieu of administrative action at any time before such action is taken. In such a case, the registered entity will waive the right to reapply for an OBN registration for a period of six (6) months from the effective date of the surrender. In such case, the OBN Director may approve or deny any application from the registrant following this six (6) month period based on the impact issuing the requested registration may have on the general public safety. A surrender of an OBN registration made in lieu of further administrative action shall be reported to the National Practitioner Data Bank pursuant to 45 CFR §60.1 et seq.

(b)   In the event an individual practitioner's registration is revoked, suspended, or surrendered, either voluntarily or following administrative action, he or she may not, at any time, utilize the registration of another individual and/or institution. Any effort to utilize the registration of another may be considered an unlawful dispensation, administration, distribution, and/or prescription of a controlled dangerous substance as set forth under Title 63 of the Oklahoma Statutes.
